August Burns Red - "Boys of Fall"

[LovePeaceandJonas]

At 0:04 it sounds like Jake's saying Brett Favre.

Maybe it's just me, haha.

[SoupDaWoop313]

3:08

Touched me like R.Kelly touches little girls

[stuntman670]

@SoupDaWoop313 Not funny.

[GuitarGuy22221]

@VearTrick Well said.

[ScienceXFictions]

the bass in this song such a fucking good sound.

[ajjjevans]

i was introduced to these guys when JB did a guitar solo for Emery's new Cd and i have to say normally i don't like this type of music but they do it really well, I'm going to have to get my hands on this album.

[raphaelnivens]

2:13 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! classic metal "oooo" lol

[Fabioso12]

This is fucking gay

[vergalis1103silagrev]

@Fabioso12 We're all deeply sorry for forcing you to listen to this "fucking gay" song. If only you had some type of choice in all this. Almost make me wonder...

[stuntman670]

@Fabioso12 U mad? You decided to listen to it. And using the phrase "gay" for everything is so old. Get new material jackass.

[ChandlerAI]

PENIIISS GOD.

[SoupDaWoop313]

3:09

Definately gives me 4/8 of an orgasm until the end.

[sickdiggitydog]

I don't believe in god, but ABR fucking rule.

[TheJacob1131]

Gtg just made a time machine

[christinejones1028]

i love 0:43, gives me goosebumps!

[jamcow3]

@jmania21 @AlexanderWearsPrada the answer is!!!! 4/4 followed by 9/4. The way JB put this one together is absolutely nuts.. You can almost say 15/4 with a pickup note inbetween frames, but it wouldn't end on beat.

So it alternates 4/4, 9/4, 4/4, 9/4, 4/4, 9/4, 4/4, then ending with 9/4. >.<

[mitchdales123]

I doubt I would still be religious if I hadn't heard the absolute passion and heart that ABR puts into each and every song.

[ThePikpikcarrot]

@mitchdales123 Sooo... you aren't religious now?

[icedragon2812]

@mitchdales123 Good for you. :]

[ju5tinr4y]

itss like god gave JB the lyrics himself... a F***king masterpiece.

[jamcow3]

@ju5tinr4y Jake?? JB plays guitar and writes the songs. Jake is the vocalist and writes lyrics.

[ju5tinr4y]

@jamcow3 realy? i thought i read somewhere that jb wrote lyrics. well either way the lyrics are incredible.

[jamcow3]

@ju5tinr4y well, im sure Jake doesn't write ALL them.. and band member can help I suppose. You may be right :P

[jamcow3]

I wanna do a quiz for all the musicians out there. Just because its late and I'm bored.

Whats the time signature of the breakdown at 1:03?

Right person gets 1,000,000 thumbs up.

(I know the right answer, JB tweeted me back about it :D)

[AlexanderWearsPrada]

@jamcow3 2/4?

[jmania21]

@jamcow3 That threw me off when i first heard it. But i couldn't figure it out. It's on the off beat so that makes it more difficult to figure out:P

[PhayzeAce]

2:48 - 3:10 hands down best part in the whole song!

[ThegreatCMFB]

This song hits me hard, and that's why this will always be my favorite song

[TomisC123]

incredible, this song just made me re-evaluate my life. i feel like this is a personal sign from god to me. i have no where to run. had some "crazy" thoughts lately. but i can go on.

[xXSpartan4Life78Xx]

It takes a lot to get me really emotional but this song actually made me cry the first time I listened to it.

[mrstealyogirl2012]

Evrything happens for a reason itz in Gods plan My friends mom died today.R.I.P

[UninsaneRocker]

I totally relate to this song, I also lost someone to a car crash. R.I.P Tiffany, we miss you <3

[sbait3]

this song is truly incredible

[swordmasteral]

This song has helped me get over the loss of my sister who died before her first birthday, when it said that the sky must be dark to see the stars I realized that god used this death to bring me closer to him and now I am changed forever and I'm not the first and certainly not the last to be touched by abr's music

[TheOmnisniper1]

@swordmasteral I'm sorry but my sister dying wouldnt bring me closer to god. In fact it might increase the distance between us.

[swordmasteral]

@TheOmnisniper1 it was a long journey but ot eventually did bring me closer to god

[TheOmnisniper1]

@swordmasteral Yeah i guess i cant say anything. Hasnt happened to me yet and hopefully never will.

[swordmasteral]

@TheOmnisniper1 I hope you never have to through it either even though i came out a better man it was awfull

[legnd1256]

hands down-best song i have heard by any band. ever.

[abmanc98]

At first i thought this was a country song lol I was like WHAA??? ABR????? naww lol.

[SelfRevolution37]

i really really liked constellations and messengers but this album might be my favorite. almost done my first full listen

[krysnickfood]

0:04 "MAGMARRRR!!!!!"... i know im not the only one that heard that

[JeremyK3094]

Ahh, I was looking for Kenny Chesney

[andmarcok2305]

YOU MISSING OH SLEEPER! sick band too powerful lyrics bro

[underoath9100]

ill still be listening to abr when im 40<3

[skullgresizent]

@underoath9100 and they will still play for you :)

[TheNegativeimpact]

@underoath9100 i will be listening to abr till i die son

[AlexanderWearsPrada]

@underoath9100 As will I... as will I....

[drunkencaraboo]

@underoath9100 I was the 40th person to thumb this up ^_^

I saw them live last night :D

[SirGetsAssAlot]

@underoath9100 Till the lord calls my name. ABR and PARKWAY DRIVE.

[punk3r7]

yes

[kat123791]

August Burns Red and Saving Grace, two favorite bands.

[YulawFernandez]

August burns red is god, are we just men, who are we to question?

[DisturbedDre]

My favorite song from them now!

[DrRoCkSo221]

Where do we go to escape the end of the world? we go to mars dude *holds out doobie*

[LittleCrow18]

@DrRoCkSo221 why do we need drugs to taint our musical understanding of this awesome band?

[DrRoCkSo221]

@LittleCrow18 well we don't *need* it. and i was kind of making a humerous scenario if the world actually ended just kinda light one up right there it'll be okie.

[bbailey890]

@DrRoCkSo221 Hmm...nope. that would never be Jake Luhr's response

[BreezyFoSheezy2010]

This album is exactly ON TIME..............

[bbailey890]

God bless ABR. This type of music is so moving to me because it deals with the absolute darkness, pain, and loneliness felt in life at times, but at the same time glorifies, worships, and honors the Lord in a way that can reach millions. God bless these guys, those who know Him, those who want to know Him, and those who reject Him. He is so pure, so is His Son, and so is His Spirit. We are blessed that we can appreciate Him this way because of bands like this. ALL Glory be unto HIM who loves us.

[jamcow3]

I've said it before but.. I wonder what the reaction of Manheim would be hearing 1/16/2011 and Boys of Fall back to back.

1/16 is like the mourning for the loss, then Boys of Fall is revival and hope in God.

I am stunned at how amazing this album really is.

[tMattLZ]

OHHHH!!!!!!

[idkson13]

abr is christian only because they are purely heaven

[ConsumingFire39]

@idkson13 This does not make any sense at all.

[sta6190]

 he iss GOD!!!!!!!!!!!

[justinandandrewshit]

ABR and parkway drive are my favorite bands

[PeachesTheMexican]

Instead of porn i listen to ABR.

[mqzmcq13]

@PeachesTheMexican youre actually bullshitting yourself cause this stuff IS porn

[monkeyTRAWMERcenter]

ABR and I killed the prom queen are my favourite bands

[ThinkTheRick]

This song really hit home when I heard it today. Yesterday a boy named Harry Cohen died, he was a football player from my old high school. I didn't know the kid, but he lead his team to victory days before his death. The whole town here is at a lost of words to see such a young hero die, even people who didn't know him such as myself. This song really brought the emotion that I felt about his death. Prayers to his family and all the ones who will miss him. This town will be reborn.

[Nathanis4Christ]

@ThinkTheRick This song is based off of a similar experience. 4 guys from their hometown died in a car wreck. All seniors and football players. Almost reminds me of We Are Marshall. This should be played with the credits xD

[c489xy2]

HE IS GOD! WE ARE JUST MEN! WHO ARE WE TO QUESTION?!

beast

[diehardorlive1]

@c489xy2 ourselves

[kjekidvids]

They should definitely play this song live, that'd be amazing

[omgholyshitgoddammit]

Woow

[jamcow3]

I can't even imagine how the people of Manheim would feel if they heard 1/16/2011 and Boys of Fall back to back.

Its like 1/16 is the grieving for their loss, and then Boys of Fall is the standing back up and looking to God for hope. Just amazing.

[BEAMizzle]

@jamcow3 You said it perfectly. It's simply amazing..

[ZlZSniP3DZlZ]

@jamcow3 I just figured our they were two different songs; honestly thought it was all one song.

[zer0mavrick]

This video needs about 1 million views. From now on my duty is to listen to this a million times.

[diehardorlive1]

@zer0mavrick good luck with that.

[EternalBlade95]

august burns red just keeps getting better,this album was pure skill.God bless them.

[HagenstadHomie]

he is god. we are just men. who are we to question... that is so true

[EternalBlade95]

@HagenstadHomie very true my friend.

[Neptune0100]

August Burns Red and Oh, Sleeper are my favorite bands.

For Today sucks.

[JakeHudsonDrums]

two of my very good friends are battling cancer, this song is very encouraging :) God is good

[duckey75]

@JakeHudsonDrums God Bless to them brotha.

[TehKrakerzGuy]

August Burns Red and The Word Alive are my favorite bands.

[ircool321]

@TehKrakerzGuy I can't believe you used August Burns Red and The Word Alive in the same sentence. The Word Alive is as bad as Design the Skyline.....just stick to ABR please.

[TehKrakerzGuy]

@ircool321 I really don't care what your opinion is. The Word Alive is one of the best metal bands I've discovered since just last year and I don't think anyone has topped them since my finding.

Bought their Deceiver album the week it was out, met the band, and it was some of the best moments I've ever shared with such a great band.

And I've met a lot of bands.

[ircool321]

@TehKrakerzGuy Cool story breh.

[COOLBEANS8029]

1:50 - 2:28

Fucking best breakdown ever!!!!!!

Except for back burner

[sonofbeast87]

@COOLBEANS8029 -OMG I KNOW RIGHT?! SOO DIRTY!!

[WorldConquerer2295]

August Burns Red and Blink-182 are my favorite bands :P

[crazydrumma323]

2 haters.How this is a great song!

[albeesantana9]

Jake said on an interview that 1/16/2011 was the date 4 high school students were killed by an intoxicated driver . and this song and 1/16/2011 are a tribute to their families.

[wingfan777]

@albeesantana9 the kids were from manheim too. their hometown

[lalalaxsydney]

fuckin mosh

[stevenmurphy5893]

amazing album very powerful lyrics and instrumentals abr kicks ass every album just gets more creative and always has a meaning behind it.

[brybrydrumma]

This album is so full of energy and life! I love the enthusiasm and ambition in this! It's almost like they're trying to tell us that there's no point in following Christ if you're not gonna go as hard as you possibly can, and I fully agree! These guys sure know how to worship, amen?

[marhst1]

Best band ! :)

He is god..

[A7XRules4life]

ABR is the best band ever.

[lavonster93]

@A7XRules4life oh the contradiction lol

[A7XRules4life]

@lavonster93 I know. My name sucks. Can't change it.

[lavonster93]

@A7XRules4life lol its cool, mine is no better... stupid nicknames.

[hardcorescreamokid68]

"HE IS GOD."

[TearsDarkenHumanity]

Shits weak yo.

[k4n470]

ABR is always really good. Powerful music.

[XxXDreamakerXxX]

all the melodies in every song are amazing!



[nwilliam39]

we're figures in the forest full of haunting trees, brushing shoulders with death to make sure we're alive...... gave me chills

[iwillwait]

Sorry solid state, but you did a piss poor job with the lyrics on this album... xD

[JakeHudsonDrums]

this song is actually very comforting. i have 2 very good friends with cancer right now and i've been struggling in my faith. it's hard to know why God let's tragedy hit us but "He is God, we are just men. who are we to question?"

but as always, scripture and the music of august burns red have saved the day :) "this melody will move us, this town is reborn"

[xCranker505x]

HTD (Rip) and ABR are my Favs..

[Harmonjayschunemann]

The new album is a bit plain to be honest

[Imthoo]

@Harmonjayschunemann you'll probably think its plain because constellations was such a good album, but i think that some songs are even better than some on constellations.

[drummerdude2222]

@Harmonjayschunemann dude i thought the same thing when i heard some of their new songs, they do have some plain sounding songs on this album... but then i heard "salt and light" and "carpe diem" and "pangaea"... there is some plain sounding songs, but they make up for it with some really good songs. if u listen to these songs and still dont like it listen to "internal cannon" there's no way u wont like that song.... its just not possible....

[iwillwait]

August Burns red and Texas in July are my fav bands :]

[chrissneakybeaut]

mudvayne and ABR r my fav bands

[Drumwannabe17]

Whenever I listen to this band, I forget that it's music and believe that I am in the midst of the most epic thing ever!!!!!!!

[MartyJSwizzle]

@ccarter010 - Yeah, I know. I have heard him declare his faith also. But, he says "God" and "Father," but he has not mentioned Jesus Christ...at least not yet in a song lyric.

[jairvanderstelt]

@MartyJSwizzle It's never good enough, is it? Next someone asks Jake write a heavy metal song to the entire book of Romans to proof he's Christian.

[Swagathor]

@MartyJSwizzle Ever heard of the Holy Trinity?

[MartyJSwizzle]

@Swagathor - Yes bro, I'm a Christian too. I'm not saying what Jake has been doing was wrong. I am only saying that his faith is growing and he has become more bold. Therefore, maybe the next album will actually mention the name that is above all names and the name that offends people. That name is Jesus Christ. That's all I'm saying.

[VelvetTextured]

ABR and For Today are my favorite bands.

[himynameiz231]

@VelvetTextured Wow me too.

[VelvetTextured]

@himynameiz231 :DD

[BeaverBroadcasts]

@VelvetTextured same here man!

[gHeTtoBrEtTo1]

@VelvetTextured, For Today is too preachy lol. their a good band besides that.

[sisk22]

@VelvetTextured Have never heard of For Today. Listening to Devastator now. Thank you!

[VelvetTextured]

@sisk22 I shat bricks when I saw them in concert!

[Steveogcc]

through this "darn" tragedy? is that what i heard?

[oJUDAYALo]

probably one of my favorite tracks on the album...who am i kidding, they're all my favorites!!

[SaintFrerotte]

@ccarter010 in brutal proportions :D

[MartyJSwizzle]

Jake is one album closer to revealing his faith in Christ. Next album, he uses the name of Jesus Christ.

[ghostgate82]

@MartyJSwizzle There may not BE a "next" album...

[aaroncoal28]

land of suck. They should just quit.

[wicker7hxc7pb7]

@aaroncoal28 Nuthin but a hater, eh?

[21metaldrummer12]

@aaroncoal28 And you should die.

[VelaToNorma7]

@aaroncoal28 lol

[pwrsurge114]

Nice title :p

[bowchicacrumpet]

bought the album and it is amazing all the way through, but i wish there was an epic instrumental like Meridian in the Constellations

[wakefan111]

@bowchicacrumpet carpe diem is close

[psycopathfu44]

@bowchicacrumpet acoustic internal cannon is close enough :)

[XxXDreamakerXxX]

@psycopathfu44 hell yeah!

[Badfish424]

@bowchicacrumpet if you buy the deluxe version there's an amazing acoustic version of internal cannon

[EternalBlade95]

@bowchicacrumpet 1/16/2011 is an epic instrumental,just wish it was longer.

[06livefast]

@bowchicacrumpet dude this whole song is stacked on every instrument!

[Purplesk8erz]

its about the 4 boys killed by car of drunk drivers
